Miami Horror


This is a image from Miami Horror's new video 'Sometimes', just premiered on Pedestrian.tv.com

Whats great about Miami ?
1. They are Aussies - from Melbourne :)
2. Awesome live - ive seen them twice ! so so fun !
3. They are both hotties too lol
Lastly and most importantly - the MUSIC ! they are kinda electro fun, sometimes chilled and but mostly up beat and fun for twirling :)

click here to watch the new clip !!!

The clip is kinda blue lagoon, young lovers. I think its worth a look just to appreciate the beauty in images

and miami... if ur reading this.. i love ur work (as u can tell lol) and i will surely come see u at the Empire in Brissy when u are touring in the coming months




CAmeRaa !!! I put a camera on lay-by today and i just cant wait to get it!

It is a canon powershot underwater 12.1 mega pixel. shock proof, water proof and snow proof (for that maybe one day when i will go to the snow)

I just cant wait to start taking photos, i can only hope as beautiful as the shot above, which is an image from Frankie magazine online collection of wallpapers.

freedom

a room of one's own.

a room of one's own. by emma hope.

This photograph is By Emma Hope she is from England. U can find more of her beautiful work on flickr.com and u can follow her on twitter too if ur into that kinda thing.

I chose to show this image because it reminds me of how i feel in my own space.

Some people don't understand the allure of ones own space and things and thoughts.

I cant wait to have a new room to love and fill with thoughts and things i find and create. I wish i could have a big room to fill with a collection of things that i think are beautiful. But a teeny tiny space is also loverly for now, because it means i always feel surrounded by little beauties and i am more inclined to find serenity in sweet and small collections.

f r e e d o m by Kane Longden.


























This is another flickr find created by artist Kane Longden. He created this after completing his last exam and it expresses his releif for his 3 month summer break.

I thought it appropriate as i too had my last exam this morning. I have finished my first year of uni!! now i have a 5 month summer break!!! im taking some extra units over the summer.. just to keep my mind at work though.

Ah the relief and the freedom . Freedom is my favourite feeling. and not having freedom would have to be the worst feeling i have experienced ! u cant keep me down and u most certainly cant control me ;-)

And just as a nice lil end to this post i have posted another of Emma Hopes photos just to bring in the new season ( i have decided that summer is from October till February this year.. any objections?)

Regret




I hold but one minute regret in life.

Not seeing/ hearing / experience all that is the talents of Crystal Castles when i was at Parklife.

They played but i was so exhausted from the day and aggravated by the large crowds that i found it more productive to twirl to some unknown to me artists in one of the smaller , less occupied stages.

I want to post a link so u can here and see them, I will figure it out somehow. you will like them if ur into glichy elctro housey type moosik. some of there tracks like for example Alice Practice make u wanna jump up and break stuff, mosh and scream. and others like oldy Air War are trancy and chilled almost. They are some thing different and are from Europe i do believe.

for now some pics

This one above is from an image from CCs very first clip for the track 'Magic Spells', i got it from audioprorncentral.com. The one below the cover art from the track 'un-trust us'.

Hope is something myself and my sister share.

Hope is the belief in a positive outcome from every experience.

Hope is the feeling that what is wanted can be acquired.

Hope is knowing everything will turn out for the best.

Hope represents our sisterhood because it is our surname.

My sister is my other half and forever i will be hers.

She is my best friend and i mean that in a non-pretentious way. not in a ladeda airy fairy we are BFFs forever way. But in a meaningful, true and brutally factual way. She may be one of the only ppl i will ever fully trust and who will ever know everything about my being...and that trust of hers i cherish and protect.

But on a not so deep note, what we have the most of is : GIGGLES !!! lots of laughs and giggles. ticklish, uncontrollable, totally mutual fits of crying laughter and fun. U know that feeling wen everyone else just does not know what u are laughing at? we get that a lot. and i love it! its like we have our own little secret. reminds me of when we were growing up. nostalgia is beautiful.
